very good. have been using a similar recipe but I like to throw in a splash or 2 of worchesture, and now am experimenting with the addition of instant mashed potatoes, not to replace the bread crumbs altogether, but for creamy texture and optional flavor profiles. not bad so far.

My husband LOVES this recipe. I have made it too many times I think, and Im starting to get a little tired of it, lol. But it really is the best one I have found. Very easy to make as well. Takes longer to cook, for me personally though.

Move over old, bland recipes!!! This meatloaf is exceptional - definately high on flavor and nowhere near dry. I don't include the red pepper and substitute onion power since we're not onion fans - other than that, I do everything as the recipe states. PERFECT!!!
